Avatar n tn Prior the the potential exposure, I was prescribed a topical nail fungus medication (ClearNails Pro) that is fat soluble and claims to penetrate to the nail bed. This medication contains a drug called ciclopirox which was recently discovered to kill hiv infected cells in vitro. The percentage of ciclopirox is 6 percent. 1. Since my fungal medication is fat soluble and contains ciclopirox, will it enter the blood stream in enough concentration to affect the accuracy of an hiv antibody test?

Avatar f tn Hello, everyone. I have had a rash on my chin (see picture) for about 5 months now. It started out on the right side of my chin. It would come and go randomly without treatment. About a year ago I had some seborrheic dermatitis around my nose and the derm prescribed me Ertaczo (an anti-fungal). That cleared up the rash right away. I went to my primary physician and showed him the rash on my chin mentioning that it looked similar to the rash I originally had around my nose.

Avatar f tn I honestly wouldn't worry too too much about it. So many of us have taken so many otc meds, drank alcohol, eaten things we should prior to finding out we were pregnant. Absolutely mention it to your Dr., but I suspect he or she will tell you not to worry about it. Also, most Dr.'s will tell you that tylenol is fine during pregnancy. Congrats to you, and wishing you a healthy and happy remainder!

Avatar n tn So about 3 weeks ago, me and my boyfriend had sex. It was quite painful for me and after that i felt burning 'down there'. The next few days it was incredibly itchy, but my period came so i couldn't go to the hospital. After my period, i still had that problem down there, it just wasn't as itchy as before. I tried a few off the counter medications but none seemed to work. I went to the hospital and i was told it was a fungus.

Avatar m tn I was too embarrased to tell of the alcohol incident so i just said i was under anxiety and stress. The doctor gave me ketoconazole foam, 2% and a rx for Ciclopirox shampoo. When i apply the foam it burns a bit but the shampoo is a bit better. What i would like to know is why did she do a fungal skin culture? And your suggestion on what the outcome might be. Also i been suffering from anxiety and stress. Im even anxious of the results i have to go back in 3 weeks.
